Kelly continues his "comeback" at Super middleweight, another fight, another 1/2 dozen tats.

Kelly is going for that alcoholic gay biker look.

I figure will be about like a FNF's fight, Showtime is airing it late on SHOBOX, August 6th.

Seriously, I hope Pavlik looks good in this fight, and if he does, gets a shot at Bute, et al.

Would be intresting if Pavlik could get his act together , lots of really good fights at super mid , just cant see him getting back to his previous best form, hope im wrong .

I like Kelly, I thought for a while he was going to be the next big thing in boxing, then the wheels started falling off in the Hopkins fight. It would be great if he could resurrect himself, come back and pick up a title @ Super-Mid. Like most fans, right now I have my doubts, but i'd like to be proven wrong.

I think Pavlik's days of being a force in boxing are over. I really don't see him fighting too much longer. He's in a division that is absolutley loaded with talent. I don't see him beating Ward, Froch, Bute, Kessler, Dirrell. He can probably get by guys like Arthur Abraham, Andrade, etc.

I agree with this post MMASUX, it's a shame because at one time Pavlik had a really bright future.

I still am holding out hope. It has to be in there somewhere still. He is my fav fighter and i hope he can make it back. Has anyone else noticed how he has suddenly started fighting inside most of the time starting with the Espino fight. His punch outputs per round have been in free fall too in the last few years. Makes you wonder. He was always much more effective from the outside.

It's rumored that Pavlik might get a shot at Bute in November, so it will be interesting to see how Kelly
does against Cunningham Saturday night on SHOBOX.
